Three area events to examine Higher Education vs. Global Flood
Submitted by paula on Mon, 07/15/2019 - 10:55pmEvent Date:
July 19, 2019 - 7:00pm
Genesis tells us that God destroyed all land and its inhabitants in judgment of sin within 1700 years of creation and Jesus affirms this in both the accounts of Luke and Mathew, yet modern academia (including many Christian schools) deny a global flood during the human experience. Could the "greatest minds of science" be wildly wrong about something as big as a moving continent or the interpretation of the fossil record? Have geologists been wrong about something this big in the recent past? Could the concept of geologic time be a runaway legend from the 20th century?
Road Beat: Mitsubishi Outlander GT, A high value alternative
Submitted by paula on Sun, 07/14/2019 - 10:51pmWhen tested exactly three years ago, I called the Mitsubishi Outlander a high value, bang for the buck CUV. Now with compact, small-midsize CUVs all costing in the mid $30K range and more, the Mitsubishi stands out even more as my extremely loaded three rows of seats Outlander GT stickered for $36K all in including the boat from Japan. While the price is up a minuscule three percent, additional content and improvements have increased the value quotient. And that quotient grows as inflation would have boosted the price by at least six percent.

Road Beat: 2019 Volvo V60 T6 AWD, Momentum is certainly not lacking
